That Wheel Comes Back
Last week we spoke of somebody taking our wheel. It was the Police Department. They took it from in front of Bender's meat market on Main Street, where Officer Jefferson saw it standing while on duty. He laW that a lad in uniform was just about to walk off with it, when he cas¬ ually called to him and the young lad left it and ran for a trolley. He took the wheel over to the Police Headquar¬ ters where it had been ever since, and V?here we secured it after the notice appeared in our last issue.

The Sunday School Parade
Saturday. June 28. at 3:15 Sharp
One of the great events participat¬ ed in by the Protestant Sunday Schools of the vicinity is the annual parade. It is a festival occasion that older ones as well as the youngsters enjoy. There is the march with music and banners and happy greetings and then the refreshments. The program of the march has been radically changed for this year. Instead of the usual course through the streets the marching and countermarch^pg and counter marching will all be on Olive Boulevard, between Long Beach Ave¬ nue and Ocean Avenue. A reviewing stand will be erected from which it is hoped a distinguished body of cit¬ izens will see and learn. The com¬ mittee has invited Congressman Hicks, Assemblymen McWhinney and Cole, the Board of Supervisors and the Village President and Board of Trustees, and others. Fred Statts is grand marshall of the day and will be ably assisted by deputy marshalls from each Sunday School. Spectators will have to go to the Boulevard and secure positions early in order to hear and see.
The program as so far arranged will be: The schools will take their plac¬ es at their assigned positions at the intersection of Long Beach Avenue and Olive Boulevard. The march will •tart promptly at 3:15 under the di¬ rection of the marshal! of the day. It will end in the formation "f a cross, the arms extending on Bergen Place, and the iinging of "Onward Christian Soldiers,' led  by the band.
The Christ Church Band of Brook¬ lyn has been engaged to furnish the music of the day. Each Sunday School is providing for its own aftermath of cakes and cream. The weather man has promised good weather, not too cold or too hot, and the kiddie? are expecting the time of their jives.
